Think you've mastered your organic chemistry functional groups? Take this short quiz to find out where you stand.
If you don't feel 100% ready go back to my Organic Chemistry Functional Groups Video and download the functional groups cheat sheet to follow along.
See how you did then scroll down for the solutions at the end
Functional Groups Practice Quiz Part 1: Warm-Up Question
Identify the functional group in each of the following structures. Choose from these groups:
- Alkane
- Alkene
- Alkyne
- Alkyl Halide
- Hydroxyl group (alcohol)
- Thiol
- Ketone
- Aldehyde
- Carboxylic Acid
- Ester
- Amine
- Amide
- Nitrile
- Benzene is NOT the focus of this question set. If you see benzene look at what ELSE is present
Functional Groups Practice Quiz Part 2
Identify the functional group in each of the following structures. Choose from the list above
Functional Groups Practice Quiz Part 3
Identify every functional group present in the following molecules.
Ibuprofen – anti inflammatory drug
Folic Acid – B Vitamin
Amphetamine – a nervous system stimulant
Penicillin – common antibiotic
AZT or azidothymidine – used to treat HIV
Functional Groups Practice Quiz Part 4 – How many isomers can you draw?
Hint: don't forget to calculate degree of unsaturation/Index of Hydrogen Deficiency
- Ketones with the formula C5H10O
- Esters with the formula C5H8O2
- Saturated 8-carbon tertiary amine
- Non-amines with the formula C4H7N
- BONUS QUESTION: Can you draw at least 30 isomers for C6H12O?
I am just waiting for the results to come in my email but I can’t believe how helpful you are Leah. I am from Australia and I just want to thank you so much, your teaching has helped me soo much and provided soo many resources.
This is honestly soo appreciated!
Non amines with the formula C4H6N…????? How??
It should be C4H7N….then DOU is 2!
Leah, I may have found a solution to 3.2 that is not pictured: cyclopropyl acetate. You may have it and I missed it. Also, for 3.4, your solutions are C4H7N instead of C4H6N.
how long does it take to get the solutions in your email??
Ur videos r very interesting fo watch. Thanks for helping
Thanks so much for posting quizzes like this Leah!
I wish I came across you when I was studying for Organic Chemistry! These are so helpful and I have your voice stuck in my head when I review these lol!
You are the best. You just don’t know how much you help students out here. God bless you Leah.
I love the way how you explain things, Thanks a lot for the videos.
Really Awesome videos & tricks.
I Hated Chemistry until I watched this videos . I love you A lot. <3 Thanks a lot my angel.
Suggest me some ways to improve physical chemistry. Awaiting for ur reply.
Thanks! The search bar is a helpful way to navigate the site and find topics of interest to you.
you are my savior! I love you so much <3
Thanks Andrea
I dont get my cheat sheets.
I tried it for about 4 times.
